Facetious!, that's the word I was trying to think of.

According to a Websters vest pocket dictionary, deluxe edition of about 50,000 words, it means "gay, witty".

Keep in mind this is a very old pocket dictionary from my high school days before "gay" was adopted as a sexual orientation description.

When the late President John F. Kennedy was assasinated on November 22, 1963 and they attributed the act to M1938 Italian Carcano 6.5mm (Mannlicher-Carcano 91/38) rifle, I knew they were lying.

Back then I was still in high school, and very heavily into guns with subscriptions to most of the gun magazines and I hung around with like minded people.

Guns could be pruchased through the mail, and handguns required nothing more than a statement that the purchaser wae 21 years of age or older. The 6.5 Italian Carcano had such a bad reputation for reliability and accuracy that they were making them into floor lamps. It was rumored that they came with instructions to grab the rifles by the barrels and use them as clubs for the best results.

Lee Harvey Oswald did not have the ability to make the kinds of shots attributed to a lone gunman, and an expert rifleman would never have used such a piece of crap for an assasination.

Moving to "Around the campfire" under Bountyhunters musings. All are invited to discuss, argue, criticize, or just laugh at the postings.

Try to keep it civil enough so Chris isn't forced to shut us down. That means using really high-brow put downs and innuendo.
